This is a glossary of general financial terms and some general TLAs. Some of the ones more specific to my story are in the Cast of Characters.

Be warned that these are my personal interpretations of these terms. I am only a guy on the Internet, I have never worked in the financial industry. Read caveat lector. If you feel I have massively got hold of the wrong end of the stick or my explanation is misleading then by all means leave a comment. I don’t wish to mislead people, but this is in the end comment and opinion. I am not your independent financial adviser and the information is worth what you paid for it 🙂

As a blogger I am in the role of journalist. I have tried to make the glossary more values-neutral than my posts. Some terms, such a BTL and SAHM, tend to divide opinion. Don’t shoot the messenger – these things exist in our world.
